I don't need a man to make me happy. I want a man who adds to my happiness in a way that is so indescribable, not even Webster could find written word to explain it.

I don't need a man to go to sleep at night. I know I'll get a perfectly good night's rest and wake up just the same, but who would actually rather cuddle up with a body pillow than a guy? The pillow doesn't hug back! Okay, if you close your eyes and pretend, memory foam does a pretty good job, but it doesn't compare to real flesh and bones.

Love is not a chore or a routine. It's not something you schedule in your calendar. Love takes compromise from both people, but it should never compromise your happiness.

A lot of people say a relationship takes work. I believe that's true to an extent, because it does take effort to sustain a relationship, and a certain level of commitment, but it shouldn't feel like heavy, slave labor either. When there's more blood, sweat and tears than smiles, laughter and happiness; there's a problem.

Be with a guy who lets you know how important you are to him. Do not allow yourself to settle. Do no allow yourself to make excuses. Do not allow yourself to stay in something that truly doesn't make your heart smile

I don't need a man to comfort me when I'm having a bad day. I want a man who loves me so much, that when I hurt, he hurts just as deeply because I'm a part of him.
